Memory

For the sense of smell, almost more than any other, has the power to recall memories and it is a pity that you use it so little.
- Rachel Carson
Memory Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Memory

1.
He who is not very strong in memory should not meddle with lying.
Michel de Montaigne

2.
In memory everything seems to happen to music.
Williams, Tennessee

3.
If you are speaking the truth you don't have to remember anything.
Twain, Mark

4.
Lord, keep my memory green.
Dickens, Charles

5.
Be careful about lending a friend money. It may damage her memory.

6.
The act of smelling something, anything, is remarkably like the act of thinking. Immediately at the moment of perception, you can feel the mind going to work, sending the odor around from place to place, setting off complex repertories through the brain, polling one center after another for signs of re recognition, for old memories and old connection.
Thomas, Lewis

7.
Creditors have better memories than debtors.
Benjamin Franklin

8.
Remembrance and reflection how allied. What thin partitions divides sense from thought.
Pope, Alexander

9.
For the memory of love is sweet, though the love itself were in vain. And what I have lost of pleasure, assuage what I find of pain.
Lyster

10.
Human memory is a marvelous but fallacious instrument. The memories which lie within us are not carved in stone; not only do they tend to become erased as the years go by, but often they change, or even increase by incorporating extraneous features.
Levi, Primo

11.
Though yet of Hamlet our dear brother's death the memory be green.
William Shakespeare

12.
You can fall ill with just a memory.
Paolo Giordano

13.
Own only what you can carry with you; know language, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn

14.
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.
Friedrich Nietzsche

15.
I always have trouble remembering three things: faces, names, and -- I can't remember what the third thing is.
Allen, Fred A.

16.
The heart's memory eliminates the bad and magnifies the good.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia

17.
When to the sessions of sweet silent thought I summon up remembrance of things past, I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste. Then can I drown an eye (unused to flow) For precious friends hid in death's dateless night, and weep afresh love's long since cancelled woe,and moan the expense of many a vanished sight. Then can I grieve at grievances foregone, and heavily from woe to woe tell over the sad account of fore-bemoaned moan, Which I new pay as if not paid before. But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, all losses are restored and sorrows end.
Shakespeare, William

18.
Leftovers in their less visible form are called memories. Stored in the refrigerator of the mind and the cupboard of the heart.
Fulghum, Robert

19.
You have to begin to lose your memory, if only in bits and pieces, to realize that memory is what makes our lives. Life without memory is no life at all, just as an intelligence without the possibility of expression is not really an intelligence. Our memory is our coherence, our reason, our feeling, even our action. Without it, we are nothing.
Bunuel, Luis

20.
The memory should be specially taxed in youth, since it is then that it is strongest and most tenacious. But in choosing the things that should be committed to memory the utmost care and forethought must be exercised; as lessons well learnt in youth are never forgotten.
Arthur Schopenhauer

21.
Memory: We retain: 10 percent of what we read; 20 percent of what we hear; 30 percent of what we see ?50 percent of what we hear and see; 70 percent of what we say; 90 percent of what we say and do

22.
Memory always obeys the commands of the heart.
Rivarol, Antoine

23.
Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of thought.
Basile

24.
I would forget it fain; But, O, it presses to my memory, like damned guilty deeds to a sinners mind.
William Shakespeare

25.
Don't remember what you can infer.
Tennant, Harry

26.
Memories are all we really own.
Lieberman, Elias

27.
That translucent alabaster of our memories.
Proust, Marcel

28.
The light of memory, or rather the light that memory lends to things, is the palest light of all. I am not quite sure whether I am dreaming or remembering, whether I have lived my life or dreamed it. Just as dreams do, memory makes me profoundly aware of the unreality, the evanescence of the world, a fleeting image in the moving water.
Ionesco, Eugene

29.
Memories, imagination, old sentiments, and associations are more readily reached through the sense of smell than through any other channel.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

30.
A good memory is one trained to forget the trivial.
Fadiman, Clifton

31.
A man of great memory without learning hath a rock and a spindle and no staff to spin.
Herbert, George

32.
If I could remember your name, I'd ask you where I left my keys.
Bumper Sticker

33.
Memory is the only paradise from which we cannot be driven.
Paul, Jean

34.
The charm, one might say the genius of memory, is that it is choosy, chancy, and temperamental: it rejects the edifying cathedral and indelibly photographs the small boy outside, chewing a hunk of melon in the dust.
Bowen, Elizabeth

35.
A man's real possession is his memory. In nothing else is he rich, in nothing else is he poor.
Smith, Alexander

36.
Memory is the scribe of the soul.
Aristotle

37.
Never forget what you need to remember.
Bartley, Garrett

38.
We have all forgot more than we remember.
Fuller, Thomas

39.
To be remembered after we are dead, is but poor recompense for being treated with contempt while we are living.
Hazlitt, William

40.
What is read twice is usually remembered more than what is once written.
Johnson, Samuel

41.
We are able to find everything in our memory, which is like a dispensary or chemical laboratory in which chance steers our hand sometimes to a soothing drug and sometimes to a dangerous poison.
Proust, Marcel

42.
If I could remember the names of all these particles, I'd be a botanist.
Fermi, Enrico

43.
Those who cannot remember the past will spend a lot of time looking for their cars in mall parking lots.
Trachman, Jay

44.
Memory is like a purse, if it be over-full that it cannot shut, all will drop out of it. Take heed of a gluttonous curiosity to feed on many things, lest the greediness of the appetite of thy memory spoil the digestion thereof.
Fuller, Thomas

45.
For the sense of smell, almost more than any other, has the power to recall memories and it is a pity that you use it so little.
Rachel Carson

46.
Life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quickly you hardly catch it going.
Williams, Tennessee

47.
As with most fine things, chocolate has its season. There is a simple memory aid that you can use to determine whether it is the correct time to order chocolate dishes: any month whose name contains the letter A, E, or U is the proper time for chocolate.
Boynton, Sandra

48.
Contemporaries appreciate the person rather than their merit, posterity will regard the merit rather than the person.
Colton, Charles Caleb

49.
The secret of a good memory is attention, and attention to a subject depends upon our interest in it. We rarely forget that which has made a deep impression on our minds.
Tryon Edwards

50.
We don't remember days; we remember moments.
Pavese, Cesare
